Answer:

In subduction of one plate over another on the basis of weight

Explanation:

When two plates moving and colliding, the plate with higher mass will subduct below the plate with lower weigh and lighter would remain above. generally continental types of plates are lighter in weight and oceanic plates are heavier.

Ex:- The collision of Eurasian plate and Indian plate. Indian plate is below and Eurasian plate above and formation of Himalaya

A concave mirror has a focal length of 30.0 CM. an object is placed 15.0 CM from the mirror. what is the radius of curvature of
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

60 cm

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Focal length of a concave mirror as  30.0 cm
  • Object distance is 15.0 cm

We are required to determine the radius of curvature.

We need to know that the radius of a curvature is the radius of a circle from which the curved mirror is part.

We also need to know that the radius of curvature is twice the focal length of a curved mirror.

Therefore;

Radius of curvature = 2 × Focal length

Therefore;

Radius of curvature = 2 × 30 cm

                                 = 60 cm

when 82.5 calories of heat are given to a metallic rod of mass 150g its temperature raises from 20 degree celcius to 25 degree C
marishachu [46]

A 150-g metallic rod with a specific heat of 0.11 cal/g.°C absorbs 82.5 calories of heat and its temperature increases from 20 °C to 25 °C.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

It is the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount (usually one degree).

A metallic rod of mass 150 g (m) absorbs 82.5 cal of heat (Q) and its temperature raises from 20 °C to 25 °C. We can calculate the specific heat (c) of the metal using the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

c = Q / m × ΔT

c = 82.5 cal / 150 g × (25 °C - 20 °C) = 0.11 cal/g.°C

A 150-g metallic rod with a specific heat of 0.11 cal/g.°C absorbs 82.5 calories of heat and its temperature increases from 20 °C to 25 °C.

The spectral distribution of the radiation emitted by a diffuse surface may be approximated as follows. HW 2 Q2 (a) What is the
Ronch [10]

Answer:

a)<em> 2000 W/m²  </em><em>; </em>b) 636.94 W/m<em>².sr ; </em><em>c) </em>0.5

Explanation:

a)

The formula for calculation of total emissive power is:

Total emissive power = E = \int\limits^\alpha_0 E'<em>λdλ</em>

<em>                                    </em>= \int\limits^a_0(0)d<em>λ + </em>\int\limits^b_a(100)d<em>λ + </em>\int\limits^c_b(200)d<em>λ + </em>\int\limits^d_c(100)d<em>λ </em>\int\limits^e_d(0)d<em>λ</em>

<em>where a = 5; b = 10; c = 15; d = 20; e = 25</em>

<em>                                    = 0 +100(10-5) + 200(15-10) +100(20-15) + 0</em>

<em>                                    = 2000 W/m²</em>

b)

The formula for total intensity of radiation is:

I_{e} = E/π = 200/3.14 = 636.94 W/m<em>².sr  </em>

<em>c)</em>

Fo submissive power leaving the surface in range π/4 ≤θ≤π/2

[E(π/4 ≤θ≤π/2)]/E = \int\limits^f_0\int\limits^g_0\int\limits^i_h Icosθsinθ dθdΦdλ

where f = infinity, g=2π, h=π/4, i=π/2

By simplifying, we get

                           = (-1/2)[cos(2π/2)-cos(2π/2)]

                           = -0.5(-1-0)

                           =0.5

A forest ranger might be ranked as being high in what type of intelligence?
Drupady [299]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>A forest ranger might be ranked as being high in </u><u>Naturalistic</u><u> intelligence.</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Naturalistic intelligence is the type of intelligence that relates the activities of people that how sensitive an individual is to nature and the world. Zookeepers, biologists, gardeners, and veterinarians are among those people who have a higher capability of having high naturalist intelligence. Similarly a ranger who is fighting in forests must also be kept in the same category and he might be ranked as being high in the field of Naturalistic Intelligence.
